I posted Part I of my CCS/Sandman crossover miniseries to [livejournal.com profile] tsukimineshrine yesterday, but no one seems to be reading it. I promise, nice Clow! It's not that confusing if you don't know Sandman! (Though this chapter is more of a prelude to the two central chapters.)

I think, if you added me and all my friends together, you would get Rodney McKay. This is not entirely a good thing.

It's the math. And the science. And the food. And the obnoxiousness. And the geek.

Apropos of which, I really hate the math teacher, though to be fair, she hates me too, and not without reason. That obnoxiousness I mentioned? Comes from me.

She just...ergh! I don't care whether she likes synthetic division or not, she should have gone over it with us when the curriculum said, and now it's on the midterm, but she still won't stop mentioning how much she hates it! What part of 'I do not care' is so hard to understand? You're testing us; at least try not to make us hate a math concept!

Also, she goes over every single step if you have a problem. Since my problems usually occur halfway through or later, and I skip (even in my mind) most of the boring steps in between, it is a total pain. There is, in fact, a point between 'understands everything' and 'understands nothing', and I am usually there.

I know what you're going to say, okay, guys? Just...don't.

I need to convert the RL friends to the wonder that is SGA. I'm sure they would like it. Aliens, vampires, sufficiently advanced technology, plosions, snark...how, one might ask, could they not?

(As a sweetener, there's a female character who hits people with sticks.)

My math teacher thought synthetic division was awesome, but confusing when she first learned it. I also tended to skip steps, except I had to remember to do them all when I took the actual test.

Ah, if it's not confusing I'll give it a try. I was shying away from the Sandman canon.

Heh. My math teacher was an annoying twit which I despised due to his method of teaching, but at least he had no objection to any of the subject material. He liked synthetic division...^^ Of course, he had this bizarre race with the other math teachers that existed only in his head, and he was - as mentioned - an annoying twit, but other than that...

SGA?

It wouldn't be so bad, really, except that last year's math teacher was wonderful and taught us so very much, without ever treating us like mental incompetents. I miss that.

SGA = Stargate: Atlantis. It's like...Star Trek meets Doctor Who. Including the slash. And the snark. And the soul-sucking space vampires. You want to watch it. *nodnods*
